It’s 1:27 AM And I Just Submitted My Last Final Of The Semester. Now It’s 1:29 Because I Thought

Thinking about the DQXI Party member's favorite fruits

Note: I haven’t finished the game yet!! Pls be careful with spoilers, I just got Jade back into my party 💚

Erik went wild dog feral the first time he ever tasted a mango. Exotic, summery fruits were rare to come across in Snifelheim, and I like to think he's very adventurous when it comes to food. Lingonberries hit him with a weird nostalgia.

I think Veronica is a strawberry girl, and she likes them even more when they're on the sour side. A bit of a basic choice, but she's not ashamed of it. It's only a little insulting now that she looks like strawberry shortcake.

Serena likes pears. Specifically Bartlett pears. Simple, mild flavor, not too crisp.

I think Sylvando loves citrus fruits. Oranges and lemons grow well in Puerto Valor. He's also a guava enjoyer. His favorite way to eat fruit is on a toothpick as cocktail garnish.

Jade likes grapes. Can’t explain, just vibes.

Rab is a rhubarb-strawberry pie enjoyer no I can’t justify this one either. This ain’t even about fruits anymore. I do think he likes most fruits that can be baked into something, like turnovers or pies. More characters (possible spoilers) below

Hendrik enjoys an apple. Simple. Predictable. Can't hurt you. Perhaps he'll engage with a berry if he’s feeling daring.

Jasper likes any fruit that goes well with whipped cream, like peaches, berries, cherries, etc.

Prince Faris is a diva, he'll only eat the most luxurious choices! Cactus fruits are pretty common where he's from, but for some reason he gives Passion Fruit vibes. I also think he'd like papaya. I think he'd like pinapple but wouldn't be able to eat too much. He doesn't like how it burns his tongue!

Vince Vanquish isn't a fruit enthusiast per se, but he likes to advertise healthy eating habits for the kids in the orphanage that he takes care of. He snacks on apple slices, oranges, bananas, the type of stuff that's easy to get kids interested!

DQXI Characters and Nausea

“That’s such an oddly specific thing to write about why are you—” My stomach hurts and I’m sad about it

Erik

The sight of unappealing food can actually make his stomach turn quite a bit, surprisingly. There’s just not too much he won’t eat.

Veronica

Gets motion sickness and horrid seasickness. The Salty Stallion is not kind to her.

Serena

Overwhelming smells make her nauseous, and give her a migraine. She loves the aesthetic of scented candles but it’s so hard to find ones that don’t unsettle her

Sylvando

Whenever he gets a little stage fright (or pre show anxiety?) he can feel his stomach get a little bit jumpy, but that’s almost never

He will get nauseous whenever he experiences bouts of depression or uninspired times

Jade

The sight of blood makes her nauseous, most injuries do

Rab

Gets indigestion pretty regularly due to his age and having a sensitive stomach

He also feels stomach pains if he overexerts himself physically

Hendrik

Bugs make his stomach uneasy. Their legs and their slime and their eyes and their…ourgh.

Jasper

Getting too worked up over anything can lead to him feeling queasy. Too much excitement, too much anger, too much anxiety. He’s very sensitive.

So anyways with the rapid rise of fascism I feel it’s a good time to point out that it’s perfectly legal to follow unjust orders slowly, badly, or inefficiently

I wanna make a tier list of yokai you could pick up and throw into a wall

Dqxi had the right idea. If you're gonna make a character in your story have their natural hair color being some kind of bright unnatural color, it should be the huge fighter man that's inarguably masc. Dqxi could've given the long, pretty lavender hair to any of the other main party members. They could've given it to Serena. Or Jade. But they didn't. They gave it to Hendrik. Absolutely unparalleled move.

Thinking again on some Dave Lore: In the book "Dave: A Legend", he's mentioned as becoming a "pink-masked privateer". A privateer was sponsored by the state, so to speak - which got me wondering.

A privateer was often issued commissions, or letters of marque, allowing them to attack other ships without fear of it being labelled as piracy, and being allowed to claim those ships as prizes under law. Dave only became a privateer after his beloved King fell - which I've always assumed to have been King Arnout of Zwaardsrust, the last King. After Arnout fell, so too did Zwaardsrust, leaving Dave without a home kingdom.

Twenty years or so later he met Sylv - a noble by birth - and together they painted all the masts and sails in the inland sea pink. Ergo, Sylv, as Dave's newfound sovereign, commissioned Dave and allowed him to go after those ships without fear of reprisal - and even helped him in that task, as the book mentions.

Fumi again..🐟🐟🐟
